The death of Jesus was not by accident or by surprise but rather was a part of the plan of the Father to redeem the world

Scripture: Proverbs 22:7
An idea is being floated in our nation that citizens must pay for the sins of the past in something called "reparations." This message asks if this concept is biblical. Praise be to God that He does not require reparations from us!
